North Belfast loyalist Ihab Shoukri is being allowed to return to Northern Ireland after a High Court judge ended his enforced stay in England. The 33-year-old is accused of membership of the UDA and UFF.

He was released on bail in January on condition that he lived in England after the court was told about death threats.

Mr Justice Weatherup warned Shoukri about concerns for his saftey and has ordered him to stay out of Belfast.
